The Books

Book One ✪ The Last Rite

Maggie Stuart is only 13 when she has her first life-altering encounter with the occult. Kidnapped, endangered, pushed to the limits of her young strength, she discovers her own innate supernatural powers — and as powerful an addiction that will follow her throughout her entire life.

Featuring illustrations by the author, The Last Rite is a moody, dark tale of temptation and terror.

Book Two ✪ The Red Ring

Now in high school, Maggie’s situation at home hasn’t gotten any easier. Neither have the choices she is forced to make when a sinister force infiltrates the lives of her allies from her previous adventures.

What’s more, those forces seem determined to do the absolute worst: to block Maggie from participating in what she hopes might be a way back into that occult world that entices and terrifies her in equal measure, but which she can’t live without.

Book Three ✪ Heaven & Hell

College drop-out and low-wage earner Maggie Stuart moves into her twenties as a struggling artist in Montreal. The supernatural powers she craves have never felt so distant, and all her former allies appear to have moved on — both with great success and without her.

But there are more surprises in store for Maggie, some longed for and some that will tear at both her sense of self and her ambitions for the future.

Published serially in four parts beginning with Living Large In Purgatory and continuing in A Heaven of Fallen Angels, A Hell of Our Own Making, and concluding in Falling to Earth, We Fly.
